Want A Delightful Glow Delivered?

Some of the most beautiful things in life are the things we can’t hold in our hands. Things like beauty and laughter and amazement and memories and golden days and the gift of time and kisses and adventures and successes and awe and accomplished tasks and salvation and wonder and delight and kind deeds and […]

In This House………. …there are quite often crumbs on the floors and dust in the corners. …you will find at least a few dirty dishes piled in the sink……..and sometimes a whole teetering stack! …items rest quietly on the counter waiting their return to rightful homes. …there is always dirty laundry. …often, a basket of […]

In the rhythms and routines of life, The day-to-day, The simple tasks. The have-tos and must-be-dones. Along the edges and cracks. We find ourselves creating. Creating though we do not see it forming at the time. We mold memories. Traditions arise and unfold in the threads and edges. Unplanned, really. One day we tell. We […]

Open windows and Adventure and Shrieks and Laughter. . And 7:15 a.m. with 63 degrees on the thermometer and a cool breeze. And my white robe belted around me feels snuggly good and I’m quite content to curl my hands around my coffee mug and watch from my backdoor porch. I’m mostly not-a-thrill-seeker. My adventures […]

Three devotions I recently posted on Instagram ~ He Meets Our Needs Water-pelted soil lies damp, deep, silent. The water-runs leave furrows and marks and the dirt, now mud-clumped, shows the etched lines left by my farmer’s implement. It contrasts beautifully against the brilliant blue this Kansas sky is so good at. It shouts silently […]

I do not claim to understand life. The living and breathing and moving of it. The heart of it and soul in it and soul in us. Mystery this. How we live in the moments and the clock tick-tocks them away faster than we can say hickory-dickory-dock and wraps them up into memory packages for […]

Do you know what I see when I look at this picture? I see grace, great grace and beautiful love poured out on me. That’s my Dad. And that’s my son. My little, bitty blondie boy with the best laugh ever, who grew up when I happened to glance away for a millisecond or two. […]

Place Rejoice on repeat. . This is my reminder to myself on this beautiful new Saturday morning. July 28, 2018 has never been here before and won’t be again. Mystery, that. The elusiveness of time and sometimes the elusiveness of rejoicing in every good day the way I long to. . Rejoice. . rejoice for […]

It Happened Like This. I had it planned in my head and a little bit on my planner. I’d written “Pages and Project post” in black ink on my planner page on the column for Wednesday morning. I have a couple of books that are a bit overdue for review. Not really, except for […]

The screen door stands open and the birdsong chatter wafts cheerily inside my walls. It’s a glorious morning. A deer bounds through our thirsty-yet-green field of wheat. The sun edges, edges, then bounds above the horizon in a joyous new-day way. I creak open the screen door and tiptoe across my porch and […]

Tuesday holds the ordinary, the everyday, and the small. Give us courage to sit on a bench and listen to the secrets small things have to teach us. ~ Emily P. Freeman the • delightful daily details • docket…. {the gratitude list} pink pastels painted across the horizon tips this morning and shimmering in […]

I’ve been asked about what pens and markers I like and/or use for handlettering, so I decided it would make a wonderful Ten on Tuesday topic to talk about. Besides, I’m kind of a pen junkie/fanatic. I love to walk up and down the aisle of an office store and look at all the pens […]

There’s a reason I fight to delight in the daily details. There’s a reason I count gratitude for simple things and every good day. There’s a reason I try to create beauty in my home and everyday. There’s a reason I lean into looking for laughter and hunting out happiness. There’s a reason I meditate […]

My daughter turns eighteen this week and I find contemplation and memories and happiness for her all rolled into one big heart-shaped pattern. I could say so many things. Things like, the time really does go so fast. Things like, how unexpectedly you find yourself with children grown. Things like, how calendars keep turning and […]

Last night, all I could see were dirty dishes and laundry that needed folded. I was tired and irritable and it looked like too much. I can not take one more dirty dish or laundry that never ends. I have a mini meltdown and exclaim to my husband that I am so tired of dirty […]

Matthew 5:14-16

You are the light of the world-like a city on a mountain, glowing in the night for all to see. Don't hide your light under a basket! Instead, put it on a stand and let it shine for all. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.
